can't get minitoc styles to work

[SandraF]

Hello,
My minitoc (I'm only using one level) is coming out bold when I want it to be not bold. I was thinking of using 2 levels but I don't dare try to make it any more complex since I can't even get one level to work.

My TOC level 1 is bold, but I do not want the minitoc to be bold, and it seems in theory I should be able to do this.

I tried to follow directions in the help.

I changed the p.minitoc styles to look like this (I did both 1 and 2, since I wasn't sure which one applied):

p.MiniTOC2
{
font-family: 'Univers LT Cyr 45 Light';
font-size: 10pt;
font-weight: normal;
}

p.MiniTOC1
{
font-family: 'Univers LT Cyr 45 Light';
font-size: 10pt;
font-weight: normal;
}
No luck.
I created a class as directed in the help and edited the proxy to use it:
MadCap|miniTocProxy.toc2
{
font-family: 'Univers LT Cyr 45 Light';
font-size: 10pt;
font-weight: normal;
}

No luck.

Getting desperate, I went into the automatically generated MadCapBlaze.css stylesheet from the output and copied everything that a) looked like it could have to do with the minitoc and b) had a font reference in it into my stylesheet, pasting it at the bottom, and changed all the "bold" references ( there were several and I was hoping this might be the explanation) to "normal."

No luck.

Finally I changed all the "font-weight: normal;" references related to the minitoc to "font-weight: 300;" just in case there was some sort of relativism going on and "normal" was being defined as bold.

No luck. It's still boldface. I hope someone can help. Thank you in advance!

I can't help you directly, but you might be able to identify what's going on (and what you need to update) by building a HTML5 output and then examining the code, using "Inspect element" or "view source".

As it's a custom font, I'd guess it could be the font-weight that's the problem.

The font might look like that when using font-weight: normal / 400, and you may have to use a different font-weight to see the "light" font, such as font-weight: 100 or font-weight: lighter.

If it's a web font using @font-face, then check what font-weight is set in the @font-face definition, as that's the weight you should use when you reference the font elsewhere in your CSS.
